The Disney Animal Kingdom Villas is divided into two sections. The first phase, Jambo House, opened in 2007. These accommodations are in the existing Animal Kingdom Lodge.

The second phase, Kidani Village, opened May 1, 2009. This area features a new restaurant, pool, recreation facilities in addition to the new accommodations.The majority of rooms have Savanna views. The standard view rooms overlook the pool, garden or parking lot. (The standard view room views can be requested but not guaranteed.)

We love Kidani! The room sizes are perfect for our family. Having 4 kids under 8, the rooms provide a perfect amount of space so we are not all on top of eachotherr. The Community Hall at this resort is spacious and provides a terrific view of the animals. The walk over to Jambo house is plesent and not too long. Bus service has always been great.
